I have created this blog to hold myself accountable. It is time for me to get back in shape, and feel good about my body again.
My objective is to cook myself healthy meals and not sacrifice flavor or creativity. By cooking my own meals everyday, I can control exactly what goes into my body.

Day 268

Tim stayed at our place last night and we woke up early and went up to Arlington, we stopped at louisa's and got breakfast on our way.

For Breakfast: Americano and a fresh raspberry scone.

We got up to the farm and it was beautiful outside. We hung out all day and played outside. We even went on a hike. That's right folks I went on a real hike with my new hiking boots! I wore my brace and for the most part I felt really good. It felt really good to be active again! I had an apple for a snack but we basically skipped lunch.

For Dinner: Homemade spaghetti and meat sauce with a chicken garlic and artichoke sauce. It was really good!

About Me

My name is Katy, I am currently a student at University of Washington and I live in Seattle with my wonderful girlfriend, Cassi. This past April, we flew down to Las Vegas to play in a soccer tournament. We play year round on an all women's team here in Seattle. In the first game of the weekend, I heard three loud "pops" in my knee and came crashing to the ground. I tore my ACL and had surgery, replacing the ligament completely with part of my hamstring. Not being able to walk, and play soccer made me realize that I was taking my body for granted. I am a naturally athletic person, and I have let myself get out of shape. Since I graduated high school in 2005 I have gained a lot of weight. My knee injury has put things into perspective for me and realizing how lucky I am to be, an otherwise healthy person, makes me feel foolish for not taking care of myself. It's time for me to change my life.
